Mahalo, a 19-month-old pit, suffered the worst injuries — with more than 1,000 quills throughout her body including one that nearly pierced her heart.

Her brawling buddy, 9-month-old Nestah, also got a face full of quills.

The injured dogs required multiple surgeries to remove the dagger-like objects — resulting in thousands of dollars in medical bills for Mazur, who has missed work numerous times to be with his precious pets.

All three pups are currently resting up and expected to make a full recovery.

“The doctor said it’s a miracle,” Mazur told the Canada Star.

There's a TV show about some rural vet, Dr. Pol, and they had a dog on it that repeatedly kept pestering porcupines and getting fucked up exactly like this. One dog came in 13 times for it!

I love dogs, but the tone of the article, that somehow these dogs are the victims, not predators, is annoying. Porcupines aren't attacking dogs, ever.

The owner also likely got completely ripped off, or, more likely, is using it to pull a GoFundMe scam. On the show I watched they simply had a tech remove the quills and the dog was soon back to normal. More than once. Some antibiotics for potential infection and they're back in action soon.

I have known vets, have observed much more major surgeries, and hung out at the clinics they owned or worked at. No surgery to remove quills costs $11,000. Or even $1,000.

While backpacking, I can across a porcupine with a soup can on his head. I picked him up by the can and shook him until the can came off. The bastard just walked away. not even a thank you. Porcupines don't have good manors.

Did you see the episode where some guy brought in two dogs that tangled with a porcupine, had all the quills removed, and then came back again a few hours later on the same day with the same two dogs?
